I've been using org-mode for a little while, I've kept it really simple for  
now, with only two files :
- one to act as an inbox, with remember-mode
- another where I stick just about anything that's been processed from the  
inbox

This is great for managing somewhat 'actionable' items, fitting a  
projects/tasks paradigm, but I keep adding things of a more general nature,  
that I won't be needing on a day-to-day basis.
ie outlines describing a general topic, some sysadmin how-tos, reading  
notes etc
I see these notes more as an archive of knowledge nuggets on selected  
topics, rather than something I'd need to show up in my agenda view.
Ideally they would be heavily interlinked in a wiki fashon for easy  
navigation when referring to it int he future, but I haven't put much  
effort into that yet (well it's all in one file for now...).

I was wondering if anyone uses org-mode for this kind of use, and would  
really be interested in reading how you maintain such a system.
I'm especially interested in methods that relate to structuring  
and 'querying' the knowledge base, since it's of no use if information  
can't be found easily.

regards, julien.

PS : by the way, first post here, so hey everyone !
